i’m not feeling with my head

They come to dance  
Cos the leaves are falling 
Autumn in their hearts 
In other lonely arms  
They no longer feel apart  

They come to dance 
To ease the darkness  
Winter here too soon 
Love is heating up the room 
Like promises in bloom  

They come to dance 
And the music surges 
Hear the melody and romance blend
Creating not love but mere illusions 
The band and the hall but a means to an end 

They come to dance  
So also did she  
Convinced of a lie  
Tired of turning aside 
I could see it in her smile 

They come to dance 
When there’s rain on the street  
Summer dead and gone 
Some raise their defences 
And miss the point of the song 

They come to dance 
And the music surges 
Hear the melody and romance blend 
Creating not love but mere illusions 
The band and the hall but a means to an end 

They come to dance   / Cos the leaves are falling  
Autumn in their hearts   / In other lonely arms 
They no longer feel apart 

They come to dance  / To ease the darkness  
Winter here too soon  / Love is heating up the room 
Like promises in bloom

This song was inspired by the 2006 Xavier Giannoli film “Quand j’etais chanteur” (The Singer), starring Gérard Depardieu and Cécile de France. Depardieu plays Alain Moreau, an aging performer who sings for one of the few remaining dance-bands in Clermont-Ferrand. Though something of an idol amongst his female audience, he has a melancholic awareness of the slow disappearance of that audience and of his advancing years.

We Can't Keep Running Away

Raising All My Sons

# Lyrics

Ate my words, swallowed down
Painful things, We’re not proud, are we
Scenes that mix around my head
Spinning tops, pulling threads, lose

Caught my thoughts, brought to ground
Opposing sides, fighting curves round
Popping stabs of splintered spots
Chewing on the fat and gristle

Safely in your
Im stronger in your
Hold me in your, fine… , delusion

Sticks and stones breaking bones, Fighting words to provoke
Shorting sense, seeing red, nothing left, final breath
Scenes that mix around my head
Spinning tops, pulling threads, lose

Safely in your
Im stronger in your
Hold me in your, fine… , delusion

Delusion

Jolene

Sour Grapes

I hide my fear behind a smile

Like the books keep tellin’ me

Fix your heart in seven steps

But step one’s still honesty

I tried drowning out the noise

Scrolling just to feel less real

But pain don’t vanish when you run

It walks behind you on its heels

Porch Session

making music just for the sake of making music. Maybe one of my songs will hit the right note for you.
